Printing Instructions for library computers
At the start of the Fall 2007 semester, our library upgraded nine new computer stations with Microsoft Office 2007 (Word, Excel, Powerpoint, Access not Publisher). Microsoft Office 2007 has a very different look to it than it’s predecessor. Too many changes to list here but Microsoft has a training page to learn more about Office 2007.
Our most asked question since we’ve gotten Office 2007 is how to print. There is two simple methods to print from our library computer stations:
1. Click on the CTRL key + P
2. or Click on the Microsoft Logo and select “Print” from the drop down menu
3. either choice will bring up the print dialogue box to select the library’s Cash or Card printer options.
